If you suffer from depression, will having a baby make it worse?

One of the things that some of my clients worry about that if they have a history of depression in the past, that having a baby will bring it on or make it worse.

In this article 'Reasons to be cheerful' , the author wrote that she had this worry and that she was pleasantly surprised not to experience an increase in her depression when she had her children.

Dorothy Rowe, psychologist and author was quoe in the author saying that there is no reason why having a baby should increase depression - even if you have a history of depressive history.
